The Smoking Gun has discovered the identity of that guy who fantastically belted out every word of "Bohemian Rhapsody" in the back of a cop car after his arrest. His name is Robert Wilkinson, he's 29, he's unemployed, he's a home brewer, and his unforgettable performance in the back of a Royal Canad...

Arrested Drunk Man Sings "Bohemian Rhapsody" In Its Entirety In Back Of Police Car [UPDATE]
Dude in the video above wasn't happy about being picked up by the Royal Canadian Mounted Police for being intoxicated. The best excuse he can muster is something about "brotherhood of men on the planet earth" before he segues right into singing Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody." In its entirety. He even...
Heat President Pat Riley Might Be The Worst Karaoke Singer We've Ever Seen
At Tuesday night's "Battioke" charity event in South Beach, Pat Riley had sunshine on his cloudy day, or something. Sure, it's less than 30 seconds and maybe it's not quite Wade Boggs-bad, but his rhythm clearly needs some work. Also, a tad pitchy....
In Which LeBron James Dons A Rick James Wig While Singing "Super Freak"
At least that's what Heat owner Micky Arison would have you believe. Whatever LBJ is doing here, it's in the name of charity, as teammate Shane Battier's annual Battioke extravaganza was held tonight in South Beach. Also slated to perform were such legendary musical acts as former Knicks head coach ...
LeBron Dislocates Ring Finger
James injured his left ring finger during last night's loss to Indiana. The team isn't talking, but one report says it could be dislocated. This is your cue to make bad jokes. [ESPN]...
The Marlins' Home Run Sculpture Is The Whirling, Flashing, Spouting Heart Of Baseball At Its Best
Tacky! Boy, is that new kinetic sculpture beyond the Marlins’ outfield fence tacky. Tacky like their tacky new uniforms are tacky. Tacky like the Miami Marlins’ tackily alliterative revised name, highlighting the tacky metropolis they call home. ...
The Marlins' Home Run Sculpture Is Alive
When I was young, the Mets tricked me into rooting for them solely by that giant fiberglass apple. I couldn't wait for Howard Johnson or Kevin McReynolds to hit a home run, just so I could see the apple rise out of the similarly comically oversized top hat. So maybe, at 28, I'm no longer in the de...
Dwyane Wade Hit A 65-Foot Buzzer-Beater
The Heat helped narrow what had been a sizable deficit in their battle with the Thunder in Oklahoma City thanks to this 3/4-court bomb to end the third quarter by Dwyane Wade. Mike Tirico was still only mildly impressed. [ESPN]...
Alex Smith Used You For Your Beach, Miami
Smith re-signed with the 49ers after they lost out on Peyton Manning, and he couldn't be happier. "This was always the goal to me," Smith said on a conference call, "just to get back here." That's the sort of diplomatic thing you say when you sign anywhere, but was there really a need to kick sand i...
Quarterback Musical Chairs Leaves The Dolphins Standing Alone In A Corner
The Miami Dolphins do not have a quarterback, and now there are no good quarterbacks left....
Matt Flynn Chose Seattle Over Miami Because The Seahawks Are "Led By The Right Type Of People"
Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: Flynn says he's not guaranteed to start in Seattle, but come on....
Here Are Some Angry Letters People Sent To The FCC After M.I.A. Flipped Off The Super Bowl
Maybe this doesn't need to be said, but normal people don't complain to the FCC. It's not that they don't get offended: it's just that it takes a hell of a lot more to offend them than the sort of thing that actually makes it on television. Like M.I.A. slipping a middle finger past NBC censors. Not ...
The D Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore: Farewell, Dontrelle Willis, Crazy-Armed Everyman
The pitchers who wow us these days don't remind us of anything familiar. Most of MLB's sharpest aces—Justin Verlander, Jered Weaver, Roy Halladay, Clayton Kershaw, and C.C. Sabathia—were first-round picks, blessed with a freakish ability to throw much harder than their competitors, and groomed for m...
The Dolphins Have Spent An Offseason Humiliating Themselves
Believe me when I tell you that I say this with zero malice: the Dolphins are a pathetic franchise at the moment. It's not so much that two weeks ago they were certain they were going to have Peyton Manning throwing to Brandon Marshall and Reggie Wayne, and now they may have to content themselves wi...
Matt Flynn Signs With The Seattle Seahawks, Dolphins Running Out Of Options
According to Adam Schefter, Green Bay Packers backup quarterback Matt Flynn has agreed to terms with the Seahawks on a three year, $26 million contract. Schefter reports up to $10 million will be guaranteed....

Bulls Fans Never Did Much Care For The Presidency Of Lyndon Baines Johnson

The Marlins Are Testing The Safety Of Their Fish Tank By Throwing Baseballs At It
I love me some animal welfare, but can't get too worked up by the Marlins having a tank filled with live fish embedded in the backstop of the new Marlins Park. For one, fish are dumb. For another, the other option, the ocean, is not exactly a paradise. There are predators and seaquakes and boats and...
Chicago Bears WR Brandon Marshall Accused Of Punching A Woman In Club FIght
It was reasonable to assume that the Dolphins parted with Brandon Marshall, for a discount price, to make Peyton Manning happy. It's the same sort of roster-baiting the Titans are engaging in with their very public courtship of guard Steve Hutchison. But things can have, like, more than one reason, ...
Dolphins Trade Brandon Marshall To Chicago Because Of Peyton Manning
Why would the Dolphins trade their best receiver to the Bears just two years after executing a deal to get him in the first place? Easy: To get Peyton Manning. Or so goes the theory of those who believe Manning had qualms about playing with Brandon Marshall, who is known to be ornery despite his obv...
